your not losing anything by sitting on it, why dont you just hold off and see if your fortune changes in the new year? Sucks to see another car go, and another vw guy not motivated....

Chris is right, that car is way too nice to part out. You have a job, you wont starve.

...im not getting out of the fun i got other cars i can still play with...

pffft...dont spend your money or waste your time on that h20 crap!

if you end up deciding to sell it, it will be hard to make your cash invested back...but i'm looking at it this way.

#1-cut it up. you'll sell a dash here. a hood there. the doors later. the glass. decklid. fenders. interior bits & pieces. you'll have to place alot of adds, deal with alot of tire kickers or no shows, deal with shipping, you'll probably end up sitting on a bunch of the stuff for a long while. and the money you'll make? maybe as much as if you were to sell it whole. probably less.

#2-keep the car complete (body, decklid, hood, doors, fenders, glass, seats, etc). throw the drums back on it. throw the stock beam back in it. throw the stock wheels back on it. sell it like that. then sell the narrowed beam, motor, wheels & tires, and brake setup all seperatley or as combined package deals. i think you'll have more luck selling & making most of your money back this way.

#3-sit on it. we'll wrench on it every second or third weekend. you'll toss a bit more cash at it as time allows (not much left...rotors & front clip...?). you'll be driving it by the summer and if you still decide to sell it, it'll be way easier because it'll be a rolling, driving, stopping, kick ass looking car...and cheap vw people like that alot more than a cut up or unfinished project. ;)

so...what's the least evil of all those choices? #3...then #2...then #1.

but that's just my opinion.  :cool:

Its a great looking car as it sits, I also certainly advise against cutting it up. I see far from your asking price in value of the parts. I agree with the last post if anything throw the stock parts back on and sell the beams, rims, etc separately.

we all know that words and posts can get misinterpreted on the www...so i'll try to help clarify...

Quote from: Chris E.
Another "Zundfolger" bites the dust!  :P

"Zundfolger" = a cheap brand of coffee made from a low grade bean that is grown in the dank, frozen swamps of eastern germany. known for it's slightly halucinagenic and disorientating attributes, chris-e needs to drink this slop every morning (another "cup" bites the dust...along with the tongue wagging smiley to resemble the awful taste) when he gets up to help deal with the fact that he owns and drives a pink convertable.

"the best part of waking up, is Zundfolger in your cup...the worst part is when the buzz wears off and reality strikes!

SOLD see you all later!

SOLD = rough german translation is PAY (see google translate)...which is also known as "pay to play" in the notorious acvw underworld...which is where kevin is heading...as he has been promoted to the special ops unit of the Zündfolge Car Club...heading deep, deep undercover...mission impossible type s#!t....hence the "see you all later" remark.

3 - dont believe everything you read on the interwebs...! ;D :cool: ;)
